You cant beat tmobile for price. We have 8 smart phones with unlimited everything for a total bill of $200 before taxes. Of course none of the phones are financed.

I havent had alot of time to be on here but i wanted to say a big thanks to those who have kept my wife and my family in your thoughts and prayers. For those who have chosen to donate your hard earned cash to help lessen the pressure of our medical expenses you have my sincerest gratitude it is certainly appreciated and has been more than generous. Those who have posted the info on their facebook pages and helped spread the word, the support has been amazing. Again from the bottom of my heart, thanks.

We use about 10 a week for several years now as we buy some supplies for the shop there. You can get the ads sent to multiple addresses including your phone so you just open the screen and they scan from the screen. We save several hundred each week.

There are just so many people out the who are struggling and need help right now more than we do. The fear is that at some point we will fall into this category as well and if we don't accept help before this happens or if this happens then we will have ourselves to blame . I don't know about anyone else but for me I feel guilty taking help. I can't count how many people I have told they should get on govt assistance when they were down on their luck through no real fault or mistake of their own. I have repeatedly told people that they paid into it through taxes and it's there just in case you need it in life similar to an insurance plan but find myself unwilling to take my own advice. Unfortunately after having my wife refresh my memory, 4 years ago when we were looking for insurance the cheapest plan we could get on was $1200 a month. We could not get on Medicaid as my compensation puts us just over the amount of "income" allowed. It's a catch 22, we are told we don't have income yet they include my compensation. The worst part is that I do not have any income records for 5 years because again I don't have income. When I went to refinance my house this year I wasn't able to as you have to have income. My wife's car went out this year as well so i thought I will just go down and get a small loan for another car instead of dipping into savings, nope despite having great credit I have no income as they do not view compensation as income. Bwc is a horrible system to be in and not only does it screw you, you cannot get out of it without simply walking away.

I readily admit i am very naive and know very little about any of the available programs out there.

I went to the grocery store today and i know by the time i walk through the store pushing a cart i will be in alot of pain and will probably be unable to do much walking for the rest of the day. I could easily get on one of the provided mobility carts and not deal with the pain. I dont do this because of the looks people give me when i use one or park in handicapped parking spaces. I admit i look at peope objectively when i see someone using one and the thought of the scrutiny of others is scary. I have worked hard to create this illusion of being like everyone else. I fear being judged for asking for help when i have decent cars and a decent home.

Almost 20 years ago I was 17 and found out I was going to be a dad. That day my mindset changed and it was no longer about me it was what was best for my soon to be born son. We didn't have much money at that time and I can remember huge arguments with my parents when we would go out to dinner and they offered to pay. I knew it would be a long time before I could ever return the favor and I was satisfied with knowing although we didn't have much at the time we had what we could afford and we earned it. As life goes on you start a career and before you know it money doesn't dictate what your able to have and you start living a decent life without necessarily the worries of being broke. When my accident happened it was a huge eye opener but luckily I was able to revert back to the thinking that you simply have what you can afford again. But now the medical bills are a game changer, something I don't think I will ever be able to financially recover from. It wasn't but 10months ago I had a gun to my head and I had to ask myself if I could keep going. Luckily I pulled out of that rationale but the weight of all of this from finances to the much more dreaded possibly losing my wife is very heavy.

Tim this wouldn't be just a family thing, she wants to do some fundraiser that allows anyone including complete strangers to donate.

Part of this is just me running through my thought process and kind of talking out loud. In 2009 I was partially disabled and have not been allowed to work since nor do I know if/when I will be able to. At this time we lost all insurance and have luckily been able to afford insurance for the kids(no one would insure us with the issues stemming from my injury). At the time of my injury I instantly maxed out what workers comp pays out which ultimately was around 1/3 of my income(even if you make $1m a year there is a max we all are subjected to which is the same for everyone). At the time I was not that concerned as I was positive I would be back to work very quickly and if I had to dip into savings for a short time to make up the difference no biggie. 5 years later lets say savings isn't what it once was. We have always been very good with our money which is what has allowed us to make it this far, although there is always a time frame where its simply all gone. This year alone we donated money and toys to the toy drive on here, to 2 other toy drives and paid for all the Christmas gifts for a family dealing with a child undergoing cancer treatments(we didn't know my wife was sick at the time). Fast forward to 3 weeks ago when my wife was in the hospital and we found out she has cancer. In just this month alone we have incurred just shy of $100k in medical bills a staggering amount which is only going to go up. I have never owed money to anyone other than my mortgage payment, no credit cards, no loans. Despite technically having $0 income since 2009(compensation is so little its not tax deductible therefore we have $0 income to declare at tax time its not considered income) and being a 5 person family we have never applied for or accepted any govt help or aid, no ebt card no food stamps no health insurance nothing. We could have easily been approved for aid of some kind being technically considered extremely poor. Heres my dilemma Even with our situation and my wifes issues we haven't really allowed people to help out or do things to help lessen the load(more pride than anything else). My sister is practically begging me to allow her to do some sort of fundraiser through some website shes involved with which would allow donations to be made. At what point do you allow people to "help"? Do you wait until your completely destitute and have no other choice? By all appearances we are doing fine but since my accident its been thanks to skillful money mngt(not many people could keep going on less than 1/3 of what they do now or do it for 5 years). Unfortunately the added medical bills and the added expense of trying to keep from losing the cake shop when no one is there to produce any income(shop doesn't make a lot of money more so it sustains itself when running) is weighing very heavy on my mind as well as my finances. It bugs me to no end to think by allowing her to do this that I would be in some way "asking for help" and it would bug me to no end to wonder what people are thinking about us and why we need anything. I am certainly not above asking for help but I always thought it should happen after I sold everything from the house to the cars and had no other choice. I admit so far we have sold a lot of things over the years and it sucks to have worked, been injured and ultimately be left with absolutely nothing to show for it. Things you waited years to purchase or wanted for yourself/family quickly become distant memories and you have to come to terms with never having them(this is just from the aftermath of my accident). You work hard to buy a home and then you are faced with possibly losing it. With all of that said I would take on $10m in debt if that's what it takes to make sure my wife gets whatever she needs without question. Should I allow my sister to do something like this for us? Should I wait until we are desperate?

I have worked very hard at never having my picture on cr lol. Trish did the above pics for us a few weeks ago and we couldnt be happier how they turned out. I didnt think it would be possible to get my goofy kids to sit still long enough to take a decent family pic. Now if she could remove some of the extra fat on my face i might be a little happier.
